The Botany of Desire: A Plant's-Eye View of the World by Michael Pollan

Did not finish book. Stopped at 30%.

Couldn’t get past how Eurocentric this was, especially how Pollen described indigenous people as “indians” without any distinction of tribe, and worse, the way he at once claimed that Johnny Appleseed fought them but “Indians” held Johnny Appleseed in high regard as a “medicine man”  and said he “moved between worlds… red world and white.” There were other issues I had, but that line was the last straw.
